Looking back, what differentiates students who extract the most value from the Strathclyde MBA from those who simply complete the programme?

I am not sure what you mean. Ideally all students  would want to fully participate and they do through group or individual work as well as make the most of the opportunities the Strathclyde Busines School offers.

Do you network with companies to get opportunities for your full time MBA students wishing to solve a real company problem - For instance, a client giving a real problem for a group of students to solve under limited time frame. For instance consultancy students coming together to brain storm and design a solution to the problem?

The industry engagement i s big part of the programme. Students indeed hve a chance to tackle real life business problems

Yes we do, for example our Consulting Impact Challenge core class introduces you to the activity of consulting and provides an opportunity to consolidate what you have learned during your MBA by working on a live practice based challenge.

Are there student assistantship for the full time MBA? For instance, research assistant etc?

That is not being offered at the moment. Although students are eligible to work up to 20 hours per week, we advise tht the programme is very intensive and leaves little time for part-time work.
